    There are a couple different uses for this file. Essentially it is a derived class of Application.

    • Global Resource declarations – Using the Application.Resources property you can define application level resources. Such as styles, data templates and
      control templates.
    • Startup, Exit, and Error Handling Events (code-behind) – The code-behind of this file is used to handle application level events such as Startup, Exit and UnhandledException.
    • Application.Current Reference (code-behind) – This application is accessible via the global static variable Application.Current. You can cast this anywhere in your application.
    • Assigning RootVisual (code-behind) – The RootVisual is used to setup the startup Silverlight UserControl. This property needs to be set in the Startup event.
    • Install the application Out-Of-Browser (code-behind) – Using the Install method you can prompt the user to install the application Out-of-Browser.
    • Check for Application Updates (code-behind) – The CheckAndDownloadUpdateAsync method is used when the application is running out-of-browser to ensure that the .xap file is the latest.
